boundary. It must be on at least an 8 byte boundary so that the length
of the signal code is a multiple of 8 (well aligned). The size is used
in the calculation of the address of the argument and environment vectors
on the user stack; getting it wrong results in the string pointers being
misaligned and causes alignment faults in getenv() among other things.
Allocate a regular stack frame below the signal frame on the user stack
and join up the frame pointer to the previous frame. This fixes longjmp-ing
out of signal handlers. Longjmp traverses the stack upwards in order to
find the right frame to return to, so the frame pointers must join up
seamlessly. I thought this would just work, but obviously the frame
needs to be below the signal frame, not above it like before. Account
for the extra space in the signal code.
Preload pointers to interrupt data structures in interrupt globals.
This avoids the need to load the pointers from memory in the vectored
interrupt trap handler.
Transfer the first 2 out registers into td_retval in setregs. We use
the same registers for system call arguments as return values, so these
registers got clobbered by the system call return values on return from
execve. They now get clobbered by the right values. We must put the values
in both the out registers in the trapframe and in td_retval because init
calls exec but fails to transfer the return value into the out registers.
This fixes a bug where the first exec after init would pass junk to the
c runtime, instead of a pointer to the argument strings. A better solution
would be to return EJUSTRETURN on success from execve.
Adjust for change in pmap_bootstraps prototype.
Map the message buffer after the trap table is setup. We will fault
on it immediately.
Don't use a hard coded address constant for the virtual address of the
kernel tsb. Allocate kernel virtual address space for the kernel tsb
at runtime.
Remove unused parameter to pmap_bootstrap.
Adapt pmap.c to use KVA_PAGES.
Map the message buffer too.
Add some traces.
Implement pmap_protect.
the system load average. Previously, the load average measurement
was susceptible to synchronisation with processes that run at
regular intervals such as the system bufdaemon process.
Each interval is now chosen at random within the range of 4 to 6
seconds. This large variation is chosen so that over the shorter
5-minute load average timescale there is a good dispersion of
samples across the 5-second sample period (the time to perform 60
5-second samples now has a standard deviation of approx 4.5 seconds).
be used to index tables of counters.
Remove intr_dispatch() inline, it is implemented directly in tl*_intr now.
Count stray interrupts in a table of counters like intrcnt.
Disable interrupts briefly when setting up the interrupt vector table.
We must disable interrupts completely, not just raise the pil.
Pass pointers to the intr_vector structures rather than a vector number
to sched_ithd and intr_stray.
to kern_synch.c in preparation for adding some jitter to the
inter-sample time.
Note that the "vm.loadavg" sysctl still lives in vm_meter.c which
isn't the right place, but it is appropriate for the current (bad)
name of that sysctl.

off to witness_init() making the check for double intializating a lock by
testing the LO_INITIALIZED flag moot. Workaround this by checking the
LO_INITIALIZED flag ourself before we bzero the lock structure.
Add some missing break statements in the socket ioctl switch.
Check the return value from copyin() / copyout().
Fix some disorderings and misindentations.
Support a couple more socket ioctls.
Add missing break statements.

recursive panics or other interesting chaos. Default is unchanged.
